Painted Rims on 328i - BMW 3-Series (E90 E92) Forum

What do you guys think, painted or powder coated.
Was thinking ALL black mafia style.

or Black spokes and the inner rim(Where the spokes connect to the rest of the rim) white.

Also i plan to sell my car in like a year, so which one would be easier to take off.

One more thing can someone tell me how many inches is my car lowered, I dont know this because i bout this car at Manheim Auction.

keep the rims. everybody gets a mesh designed wheel anyways and nothing beats OEM quality. Black on Black would look great. I would have them painted as powdercoating is notorious for flaking and ends up looking really cheap. Get them painted a nice matte black and tint the windows a bit darker. Looks great

Well i heard that that pained rims chip easier than powdercoated, but painted rims cost wayyyyyyy less. thanks.
